Savigny-le-Temple (; 'Savigny-the-Temple') is a commune in the Seine-et-Marne department in Île-de-France in north-central France. It is located on the departmental border with Essonne, from the centre of Paris. It is the most populated commune in the "new town" of Sénart, created in the 1970s, in the southeastern outer suburbs of Paris.
==History== During the French Revolution, Savigny-le-Temple (meaning "Savigny the temple") was temporarily renamed Savigny-sur-Balory (meaning "Savigny upon Balory", after the small Balory river). It was also temporarily renamed Savigny-le-Port (meaning "Savigny the port"). These changes were probably motivated by the religious connotation of the word "temple". The Hôtel de Ville was completed in 1985.
